I'm almost halfway through, and true to all the reviews I've read on this book (which was why I bought it in the 1st place), its a superb real-life to read, and definitely deserves a mention.
In case you haven't heard of it: Mariane is the also-journalist wife of Daniel Pearl - the Wall Street Journal reporter who was murdered whilst covering a terrorism-associated story in Pakistan (his murder created havoc in the world of reporters and journalists at a time when 9/11 was still fragrant-fresh in our lives and many world-known 'suspects' got roped into the picture initially).
I won't say more, only that I can't wait for work to end to get right back to reading it!
